How to change WFilter listening port?

Postby yantian » Fri Nov 02, 2012 2:18 am

WFilter uses same port as Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager's web interface ( http://localhost:9090 ).



Let me know if there is a work around.

How to change WFilter listening port?

Postby gengw2000 » Fri Nov 02, 2012 2:52 am

You can change WFilter ports.



By default, WFilter listens on port 9090 and 9091. You can change the ports by modify LanMonitor.cfg manully. LanMonitor.cfg is located in the config directory of WFilter's installation directory. (Default:c:program filesIMFirewallWFilter)



Steps:



1). Edit LanMonitor.cfg using notepad.

2). In "System" section, find "Port1=9090".

3). Modify the port number and save this file.

4). To apply new configurations, you need to restart the WFilterd service.
